Cleaning up some Scrap Copper Wire

[@cuscrapping]

My yard has a separate category for wiring harness where you can leave the ends and looms on. 👍

[@Man-in-da-shed]

My yard also, big pain stripping harnesses

[@ThatScrapDude]

I always cut those off and then put those wiring harnesses in with my #2 ins. copper wire bucket/tote. 😀😀😄😄😃😃🙂🙂😎😎

[@Okiescrapper]

I need to check into that, if I get any more of them

[@duanekennard3298]

Our weather here in Daytona Beach has been strange.Three cold fronts in a week.A day or two of temps in the 40's now back up to mid 80's for the rest of the week. P.S. - With all the projects you got going on and want to do still you better make sure the doctors keep you alive for another 50 years.LOL. Take care.Stay healthy.Hope your wife is still getting stronger. And as always I enjoyed stopping by.

[@Okiescrapper]

good weather there, I just told the wife that they most likely have yard sales year around in FL. Yeah, I need to slow down one of these days, and enjoy myself more, that is part of why I am getting a few boats, I have always enjoyed being on the water. take care, see you on the next one

[@ThatScrapDude]

What a great video! Insulated copper wires are one of my favorite things to scrap. 😎😎🙂🙂😀😀😃😃😄😄

[@Okiescrapper]

wire is everywhere, thanks for stopping by

[@pauljackson5482]

Its relaxing to watch someone working 😂

[@Okiescrapper]

what's the old saying, work doesn't bother me, I can sit around and watch it for hours. it is relaxing to tinker with things at times, keep the hands and mind busy

[@pauljackson5482]

You said it, ......just then 👌

[@donlandenberg8126]

Glad I'm not the only one that gets bored stripping copper. Lol Thanks for sharing with us.

[@Okiescrapper]

yeah, some thing can get boring, but it still needs to be done

[@keith102955]

Here in Central New York we don’t have to worry about the tape we just take the hard plastic off dollar 50 a pound for the wire

[@Okiescrapper]

that is a good price, the last time I sold insulated wire I got 50 cents a pound. I plan to call around before I sell this. I have 3 55-gallon barrels full now

[@josephcormier5974]

Excellent video Allen my yard does not make you clean the wire like that but then again they don't pay any different if you do. So why do it 😂 but if I take in electric motor they take all of them as electric motor but they only pay 21 cents a pound remember when you get everything off the outboard motor you still have aluminum to melt down thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother

[@Okiescrapper]

Thanks 👍

[@stansalter1355]

Okie Scraper Alan, your thumbnail “Cleaning up some Scrap Copper Wire” got my attention but the first 1/3 talked about outboard motors. But then I enjoyed your cleaning up the wire harnesses all the while sharing your scrapping life.

[@Okiescrapper]

thank you, yeah, I got a little off topic. I have several interests. thanks for stopping by

[@paulcoenen7918]

Of course the Mariner runs , it probably actually a yamaha, look around for a made in Japan stamp. Worth a small fortune 😊👍 They are incredible little motors.

[@Okiescrapper]

yes, Yamaha made the Mariner. looking forward to using it this spring,

[@dr.a006]

With the cost of gas, my scrap collecting and scrapyard are always to and from work with little deviation. Going that way anyways and spending the gas. Might as well get paid along the way.

[@Okiescrapper]

yes for sure, my add goes out about 50 miles. but I don't want to drive out that far, so I put limitations on distance. keep it about 20 miles from home

[@cameronhamer9432]

My tenant has been doing some fishing this winter , the lakes haven’t completely frozen yet this year , he’s been trying for trout but he only been catching Steelhead , catch and release on them . 👍🇨🇦

[@Okiescrapper]

bet he is still having a good time catching anything he can, they do stock trout here in the blue river and another creek, and about 7 lakes across the state, you need to bet a trout license to fish for them.

[@cameronhamer9432]

@@Okiescrapper he usually goes fishing for salmon , the past year was a good one , almost every time he went he caught his limit . Tons of pinks , but my favourite is sockeye , the cohoe are pretty good , pinks are less desirable . 👍🇨🇦

[@timsmith9645]

That's a lot of wire to strip or clean up for the scarp yard thanks for sharing

[@Okiescrapper]

yeah, most is too thin to strip, would get a pound of good wire every 2 to 3 hours. but I did get it ready to sell as insulated copper

[@GeorgiaDogScrapper]

Awesome video, can't wait to watch videos on the boat motors. I enjoy working with small engines. Stay warm and safe and until the next video, may God bless you and your family.

[@Okiescrapper]

Thanks 👍 spring is getting closer so time to start working on the outboards and getting them ready for the lake. I need to order some parts soon. thanks for stopping by

[@jimstark1887]

I would love to watch you run this wiring through your stripper! Stay warm and happy scrapping.

[@Okiescrapper]

most of it is too thin, get a pound of clean wire after 2 or 3 hours of stripping

[@barrylangstaff5727]

I love all of your videos 🙏👍🏻

[@Okiescrapper]

thank you

[@Kreacher1974]

We are gonna get some rain as well but it will put the temperature in the low 70's

[@Okiescrapper]

ooh. that would be nice, 44 for a high today, but in a few days mid 60's. I will take that any day

[@chrislessig5277]

Great cord cleaning today so much hardwork love it

[@Okiescrapper]

Yes, thank you, took a while but I got it done, no to move on to something else. I need to run my business card on Facebook groups

[@chrislessig5277]

@Okiescrapper okay was wondering one day if I could bring my new trailer and have u weld some horse shoes for tie downs and put a light on trailer and a plug to make lights work

[@chrislessig5277]

U can make a video of call it working on a scrappers trailer

[@kevinsturgess1475]

Hi Okie, I've just striped a Nissan car loom. Small skinny wires in them. Yours looked much beefier. Enjoyed this vid thanks from nz.

[@Okiescrapper]

yeah, most had good wire, I did get some thin stuff in one

[@Kreacher1974]

My wife complains when i bring stuff home and sit out back and tear it apart, but for some reason she never complains when i cash it in and i receive a check.

[@dr.a006]

Haha! Same. Especially when I use the cash and surprise her with a massage gift card or dinner or something. Otherwise it pays for drum lessons and ammo😂

[@Okiescrapper]

yes, I picked up some ammo yesterday with scrap money

[@Okiescrapper]

I try to keep the scrap in the back area. so the front stays looking good, even thou, my daughter set up a yard sale last summer in the circle drive and it's all still sitting out there. the wife knows the scrap money helps with the bills now and then

[@dr.a006]

@@Okiescrapper sometimes I turn in lead and brass and go buy, well, lead in brass😆

[@waltwood4113]

I'm getting ready to strip some romex upgrade it to #1 bare Brite. When weather turned icy lastnight accidents everywhere. #happyscrapping

[@Okiescrapper]

temps still cool here 44 for today's high. mid 50's tomorrow and then many days mid 60's they are saying, I am ready.

[@pacodelapena]

Thanks for the visit

[@CajunScrapper-x1b]

Okie....can you tell me a little bit more bout what you do with the clipped ends.....sell em whole-melt em....thanks sir.....Cajun Scrapper

[@Okiescrapper]

most of them I toss into the shred bucket, as they contain metal, plugin ends I pull the brass out,

[@delvinbegay1502]

Everybody here complains about the junk I bring home but as soon as I get money from cashing in the final product everybody wants their cut

[@Okiescrapper]

yeah, my daughters boyfriend tells me that I can give him my processed copper. I tell him that there is a lot more out there, go get it. but he can't get away from his video games

[@allencheck501]

Hey okie scrapper, how you doing? Which lakes do you go to? I lived in whitchita falls for a cooule years went to wairika ,texoma, but did most of my fishin in arrowhead,that was like 2 mi from house. Used to do some serious jug linning over there, lots of blue cats! Just curious which ones you fish? Still got a boat at my stepsons ive got to pick up its got a 350 chev in it, got two more here at home a 19 basstracker and a cabin cruiser v=6buick motor there is some great cropies at arrowhead also, take care nm scrapper see ya on the next one!

[@Okiescrapper]

I have been checking out some small city lakes, around Duncan, Marlo area, I want to check out some others in the southwest Oklahoma area, Waurika is close to Duncan, may try to make it down that way latter this summer, there is a guy that started a channel Fishing Oklahoma he lives close to Waurika I put's out very few videos, I need to see if I can encourage him to put out more, looks like the campground at Waurika is about 1.5 hour drive from the house

[@jameserickson693]

26 below on Sunday

[@Okiescrapper]

ouch, too cold. my power tools would be on strike if it was that cold here

[@artaxerxes2363]

So it seems appliance wire and wire harness from cars are the same grade and should be together. True or not true?

[@Okiescrapper]

I think they are about the same, check with your yard, some guys say they get paid good for wire harness from cars, and don't have to cut plugs off.

Hey Allen, Gene in Tahiti, my boss sells Mariner Outboards, they've been in the business for a long, long time, if you can give me a part number for the piece you need, they just might have it...

[@Okiescrapper]

the 2hp Mariner that I have, I got when I bought the 12 foot jon boat, I put some gas in the motor and it started on first pull, it seams to run well, need to get it to the lake and try it out
